2000 flstc when I change the trans fluid does it also take care of the primary or is that a different hole? what type of fluid do u reccomend

Formula+ for the primary, it's a different hole than the trans.

Sportsters have 2 holes - engine and trans/primary
BT/Evo's have 3 holes - tranny, engine and primary

for the primary the formula+ is a good choice, everything else Spectro, or any Synthetic other than SYN3

ok I just changed my oil and I know how to do the primary. So how do I do the transmission. Where is the plug and the fill spout is there a pic of this?

Have you ever considered buying a factory manual for your bike?
